11-6 a. Briefly describe three strategies for testing internal controls when information technology is used for significant accounting processing.
The three strategies for testing internal controls would first be to assess a control risk based on user controls. This can be done by comparing computer-generated output with the source documents that can support the transactions. The second strategy would be by planning for a low control risk assessment based on application controls. This means that the auditor should test the computer application controls, test the computer general controls, and test the manual follow up of the exceptions noted by the application controls. The last strategy would be planning for a high control risk assessment based on general controls and manual follow up. When an auditor test the general controls they can usually learn about the effectiveness of the design and testing application controls.
b. Identify two strategies that might be used to support a low control risk assessment. Discuss the difference between the two strategies.
The two different strategies that might support a low control risk assessment are the user controls and the application controls. If there is not effective evidence that there are good manual follow up controls setup under the user controls there might be reason to call for a low...
